Shri Talk – another student initiative

This year, the Student Council took the initiative of launching Shri Talk. Justifiably proud of this initiative, the Student Council envisioned Shri Talk as a public speaking platform for the students, of the students and by the students. The talks are about social issues, ideas and opinions that inform, intellectually stimulate and enrich the student body. Shri Talk has been incorporated in the weekly assemblies for senior school.

To lay the foundation of Shri Talk, the Council members took it upon themselves to be the first ones to address the student body. The first two talks were powerful ones on mistreatment of Dalits in our country and dissociating religion from the actions of certain groups. Since the speakers are themselves students, it becomes easier for others to connect, relate and interact. Avid question – answer sessions, moderated and handled by students, follow the talk and all sessions of Shri Talk end with a discussion on how as a school we can do our bit. This platform will be open to all students to express, learn and challenge their minds.
